U.S. Health Information Privacy (HIPAA)

We understand that most of our U.S. customers are “Covered Entities” under the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPAA ) privacy regulations. As a HIPAA Covered Entity, our customers are legally obligated to maintain the privacy of all patient information that they create or receive. Although the company is not a HIPAA Covered Entity (except for certain portions of our group health plan), we recognize the impact that the HIPAA privacy regulations have on our customers. We wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that the company remains committed to interacting with you and your patient’s as responsible professionals who are dedicated to maintaining the privacy of information that we receive on-the-job, consistent with applicable law and regulations.

To perform their jobs, the company employees may create, develop or receive information about patients’ experiences with our medical devices in a variety of situations. For example:

We provide information or technical support for our products.
We receive questions and suggestions about our products and services from patients, nurses, physicians and other health care providers.
We enroll patients in clinical trials we sponsor.
We collect information as required by the FDA and other governmental authorities relating to the quality, safety and efficacy of our devices.
We collect, analyze and re-analyze our data in a continuous effort to improve the design, quality and functioning of our devices.

We have made available to our sales and marketing employees training materials on the HIPAA privacy regulations, and expect our employees to respect our customers’ explicit and implicit instructions regarding incidental exposure to protected health information while visiting a customer’s site.
